Chapter 4

Training begins

So my real training starts today….. Oh joy. They made me a wear the CEDEF's training clothes, which was a jumpsuit. It was orange, the upper part was fitting and I had to fold the sleeves until my elbow and until my knee, Me and Iemetsu we're practically wearing the same thing. In the hallway was Turmeric and Oregano speaking. They saw me and their eyes widened "Wow Lumina… That uniform… becomes you…"

No.. just… no. "Can I go die now?" I asked flatly. They were just standing there with jaws dropped "By the way are you two dating?" They blushed and looked at each other, how baffled they were!

"N-No!" They said in unison while their face was red. They looked good together though.. It would be such a waste if they weren't dating.

I heard fast footsteps and a cracked voice "Brat!" Suddenly a foot was on my face and I was on the floor. "Time for the real deal. We start with warm-up exercises to build stamina."

"But Miss Lal. I am still recovering from the mental pain you gave me yesterday. Not to mention that you have zero percent movements of a lady." She held the uniforms collar and slapped me spartanic style.

"Again. I don't want to hear that from a little girl who doesn't have the slightest idea of being a woman. And stop being such a wuss and get up, you train in 5 minutes." She jumped off my chest and walked towards the Training room's direction. How is it that she has small hands but it feels like a thousand dumbbells just hit me in the face?

I went inside the training room and saw Lal on Basil's shoulder. "You took long enough! Come on." She jumped on the boulder in the middle of the field. "First off; 100 laps around the tracking field to build your lung capacity, next; you move this boulder around the training room 30 times to stretch your muscles!"

"Miss Lal, That is not warm-up exercises. That is simply torture." Why is it that she was always letting me do such stupid impossible things. She blew her whistle hard making the sound go through my ears. Even though it's been a long time that I heard a whistle (due to Lala's dog training which was 2 weeks after I went to the Ninth) I hate it so much. Why?... Because… well I just hate it, period.

"Start!" She commanded. I started to jog around the tracking field.

Hold on… I stopped. "I DIDN'T AGREE ON THIS."

She was just looking at me with her goggles on. She reached for her shotgun and shot the floor near my feet. "RUN BEFORE I SHOOT YOU TO DEATH!"

I ran trying to dodge the bullets that were near my feet. "Miss Lal! I WILL DIEEEEE~"

"THEN RUN YOU BRAT!" she shot some more bullets and I decided to run for my life. "She's INSANE!" This is the start of my second life.

*100 LAPS LATER*

I hate running, I hate sweating, I hate track fields, I hate guns, I hate bullets, I hate walking, I hate feet. I walked to the Training rooms bench and lied down letting my face kiss the wood. I was about to sleep until some force jumped on my back bringing stomping pain. "Were not done yet! Get ready to bring the boulder around the field!"

"I hate my life…."

5 hours later of what Lal calls 'Training', I was stuck in my room unable to move an inch. In my bed lies Lumina, the girl who was just tortured when she was just 8 years old. I heard my bedroom door click, "didn't I lock it?" I only turned my head because my body would hurt all over if I move too much.

By the doorway I see Oregano with a tray of medicine, a bowl of soup and water. "Hey Lumina. You feeling better?" She walked towards my bed and set the tray down gently.

"Somehow but I can manage." She helped me to sit up, I really feel stiff.

"I'm really sorry you had to experience that, Lal is very strict in training when it comes to her pupils." Being called Lal's pupil really sounded weird, I never thought that I had to be trained EVER. Fighting, training, physical activities…not my thing.

"Well her only pupil will surely die sooner with her way of training." I said in a dull tone.

Her eyes widened by a bit. "Lumina, your not her only pupil." I gave out a 'WHAT?' face and she totally read it. "She has a pupil named Colonello, he's also an arcobaleno, with the blue pacifier."

That made me go with 'WTF' face. "Wait.. So…. SHE TRAINED AN ARCOBALENO?!" she chuckled and nodded.

"It's a complicated story, she doesn't talk about it much." She got the bowl of soup and handed it over to me. "She had a very complicated past."

"Looks like everyone here had a complicated past." Fuck. That suddenly went out my mouth.

Oregano flinched and looked at me with a surprised expression "Yes actually."

"I'm sorry.. I didn't mean to say that." Damn my stupid loud mouth. Great, now I have a bad impression on a person I just met last week.

"No! it's okay really. Do you want to know what happened to me, basil and Turmeric?" She smiled at me.

"Is it really okay to tell me? I mean.. Won't they mind?" I sipped on the bowl of soup and let the heat take over my body. But I was really curious in knowing what happened in their past.

"Basil is really open to people like you, Turmeric… Well.. He doesn't really mind." I nodded simply agreeing. "Let's see.. I was already in the CEDEF since I was born. My mother was in the organization of CEDEF but grew ill when I was still a baby. Boss was still 16 and he was the one who took care of me along with the others." Oregano was born here huh.

"Next is Turmeric, His parents were killed by assassins when he was just at the age of went and searched for the assassins that murdered his parents and ended up finding the CEDEF, that's where we met." I noticed a slight hint of red on her pale cheeks. So they went way back? The tone of her voice was soft but just sad. "But his feelings were filled with revenge and anger, it was Boss who found him a new start."

"Basil was taken in by Boss when he was just an infant. He found him in an abandoned building. Along with Basil was a letter saying "His name is Basil, Please take care of him"." Basil was abandoned by his parents? That's just sad. "Boss wanted to give him to an orphanage but decided to make better of the young little boy named basil and just trained him. In just the age of 3, he pledged to stand by Boss' side and train to become strong." So that's why he was so Devoted, what a terrible past.

I can see why the people here are so serious. "I'm sorry.." I felt regret in agreeing to hear their past. I should go and hide in an emocorner.

I felt a hand on my back. "Don't be! It's the past, and we have already left in it the past. Don't worry about it." She was blooming, smiling like she has no regrets. I nodded again and put a small smile on my face. "You know, you should smile more. It looks really good on you." She got up with the tray and smiled again.

She was almost out of the door and I could at least be thankful "Thank you Oregano." She stopped and looked back with a smile saying no problem. So today was the day I decided to finally get serious in training.

The past month, I've been training non-stop. They focused on building up my stamina, hand to hand combat and my reflexes and was made to do combat fields, right now they made me dodge large sized rocks. I focused and let my mind go blank. Hearing a swift wind to my right, I dodged to the left. Multiple rocks went my direction out of nowhere and I managed to dodge it all. Who would have thought that I had the potential? Well… I wasn't one of those people for sure.

"Okay. That's enough for now. But your still off the time." Lal appeared beside me. "Your improving but you have still have many ways to go. But for now.." She smirked and walked towards a room that needed a passcode and I.D, "It's about time you chose your weapon."

"I get a weapon?" I don't want a weapon! I might kill myself by accident or something. I already decided to train but as hell that I would choose a weapon for myself. "No thanks."

"Idiot, you NEED one. You expect yourself to fight with your bear hands?" She glared my way.

"Isn't that what you've been training me?"

"That was to sharpen your reflexes. Besides, fighting with your fists doesn't suit you. And do you really want to fight with your hands? You'll feel the thud and punch as you hurt a person." Why is she so persuasive? I sighed and just went in the room with her.

As soon as I walked into the room, my eyes were bulging. It was filled with weapons of every kind; from guns to swords. I couldn't help but be in awe, "I-am-in-a-fucking-death-room." Ugh.. there goes my bad habit again. I should stop saying vulgar words…

"Come on, pick already." She complained "What do you want anyway? A gun or a blade?"

"A staff …." I sad blankly. "And daggers."

"A staff and daggers? Doesn't sound like a very good combination." A voice flew in. I was the only one who turned, Lal was still focusing on what to choose for me. Iemitsu was leaning by the weapon rooms door crossing his arms. "You sure about your choice of weapon?"

I nodded. "I can have a middle ranged weapon with a closed ranged one. And I can throw the daggers at that." To be honest, I thought about this once. But I never thought the day to come where I really had to use weapons. "By the way, aren't you supposed to be with Basil on a mission?"

Iemitsu had a huge grin on his face… and it was creeping me out. "You even learnt how to choose a proper weapon! That's great Lumina!" Oh no…. His hopes in me were rising… Don't rise.. I know that grin. Not to mention he ignored what I said last.

"Lumina! Come here." Lal cut in our conversation. Thank you Lal! YOU ARE MY SAVIOR.

I ran to her and find her holding a short metal stick. "Miss Lal, I do not want to die with a stick as a weapon." She kicked me to the floor and stood on my stomach making me have cramps. "Miss Lal… That hurt."

"Idiot. This is not just a metal stick." She stretched her arm forward and the stick extended with a clicking sound. "It's a 5 foot staff, since your still short." My height is still 3'9.. okay. My height sucks. "And there's something else." She cut my thoughts and grabbed the staff from me. she tapped the end of the staff to the floor two times and the head turned into a dagger. "It can change it's head to a dagger for stabbing."

I gulped, this is a really dangerous weapon… Should I really get one? "O-Okay… So.. when do I start training with my weapon?" I asked nervously.

"Tomorrow."

"… Tomorrow?" I asked.

"Tomorrow." She snapped back.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! "Are you really sure I'm ready for a weapon? I asked while putting my hand behind my head scratching it. "I mean.. My reflexes are still.. You know.. Down and-"

"Your reflexes are enough for you to train with a weapon. This is why we chose your weapon already, so that you could improve more." This time, Iemitsu was the one who replied. Damn you Boss.. This time I mean my vulgar words….

"So get some rest stupid pupil and we'll continue training tomorrow." She threw the staff to my direction and I ended up almost falling. The staff was a bit heavy ant the metal felt cold and hard. The feeling of holding a weapon creeped me to the bones, I don't know why but it feels like I might kill someone. So…. Are you weirded out by me yet?

I went out of the training room and started to walk towards my room until Basil called out my name and stopped me. "Lumina! Wait! Prithee!." He ran to my direction while waving.

Basil was gone for a week, because he went with Iemitsu for a mission, Orders of the Ninth himself. "Hey Basil, Welcome back. How'd the mission go?"

He smiled and nodded at me with his usual cute boy smile. "Master and I has completed Ninth's orders. Ah! Thou hast a letter from the Ninth." He grabbed a rolled paper from his back pocket and handed it over to me.

"A letter from the Ninth.." It's been a month since I saw him. And that was when the Crib incident happened. I didn't understand why it happened, but since it was the past, I left it behind me and just moved forward. What's the point in finding out what you want to know when you can't even get the slightest clue from anyone?

I hesitated in opening it but it left me no choice. I unrolled it at find a dying will flame as a seal on top of the paper. I see that the Ninths handwriting was still perfect as ever, The letter was addressed to me saying:

To My Dear Lumina,

I know that you have endured for a month now, and I am deeply sorry for that. One day I will explain everything clearly, just be patient and let yourself mature. I am also sorry for suddenly sending you to train to CEDEF, it will be very difficult but it will make you strong enough to stand on your own and fight for yourself. The people there are nice, and I know you have seen that as well. The people in the Mansion misses you and Ganauche keeps worrying about you, but I told him you're a strong hearted girl. I won't be able to see you for a while but the time will come when we could meet again. I hope you understand. Stay strong and take care

P.s Xanxus is alright don't worry.

Sincerely Yours,

Vongolo Nono, Timoteo

The words in this letter ran through my mind like Ninth was really here reading it. I wanted to rip it apart…. It made my feelings go all wrong. "Thanks Basil." I said dully. I turned around and walked away with a blank face. I shouldn't really get things like these get to me or I'll get those freaky dreams again, knowing about what I'm feeling right now, I doubt I'll sleep in peace. Yeah, hearing from him made me happy yet super impatient. Like I wanted to run back to the mansion and ask why things happened. But since I can't… Fuck it. Again… My bad habits are getting to me.

I can't help but think, where the heck is Xanxus? I know he was broken by the Ninth, but that ice had to melt someday right?... Wait… Iemitsu said it can't be unfrozen without a really big amount of dying will flames… So was he still frozen? I had this sudden urge to look for him. But since I am freaked out by this… Nevermind.

I stopped by the clinic to request for some medicine for my muscle pain. As I went in, I see Turmeric getting treated by Oregano. "Ah. Hey Lumina." Turmeric was full of scratches. Not to mention he was nude. Really now… How can they be so familiar with each other without blushing? So I thought. I can see Oregano slightly blushing. They had a six year gap right? Not bad. Somethings bound to happen between these two. I hope.

"So I see you got a weapon." Oregano smiled looking at the metal stick that was firmly gripped within my grasp.

"Uhh.. Yeah. It's more on "Miss Lal got me a weapon."" Speaking of Lal, I heard something goooood~. "By the way, is it true that Miss Lal's student was her Lover? The one with the blue pacifier?" They coughed up. And looked at each other with a shocked expression.

"L-Lumina! You can't say that here!" Oregano said abruptly standing up.

Turmeric was still, growing out this expression of a scared chimpanzee. "That's… Taboo for Lal."

HA! I found her weakness! This is going to be fun~ ….. But this had a negative side, Lal will seriously beat me to a pulp. But I can't imagine Lal having a love life, I know she was an arcobaleno… but she is still a freaking BABY for petes sake! Am I the only person here who thinks that? "But isn't she just a kid?"

They're expression grew wider and started to look at each other. They looked back to me "L-Lumina.. She is practically way older than Iemitsu.."

Your kidding me right? "Ha-ha-ha! Good one guys." Now that was just impossible. How could Lal; An infant be older than Iemitsu?!

"Lumina, the arcobaleno's curse is a curse where an arcobaleno is inflicted with an infant body. But since she's an incomplete arcobaleno, Lal ages but her aging is much slower than a normal human." Turmeric pointed out. "I thought you knew about that."

"I didn't know about THAT." From what I know, I thought Lal was born as one. I didn't know it was a curse inflicted on a person. "I thought the arcobaleno was born as… well, an ARCOBALENO."both gave out a crooked smile at me. Now my head was starting to hurt, this made me all confused so I thought I'll just talk to Lal about it. "Anyways, I'll be going now. Hope you heal soon Turmeric." I waved at thme and turned my heels walking away.

I made my way through hallways trying to spot Lal's room. Instead of knocking, I burst through her door with a dull face "Miss Lal~ Please tell me about the Arcobaleno~" I looked around and saw no one in the room, Just bedroom furniture and air. "Well.. Might as well just wait for her." She was most likely to take a bath in this time of the day. I sat down on her bed to wait until something small and shiny spotted my eye.

On her side desk was her pacifier. I stood up and slowly walked to it, seeing the corrupted pacifier, I couldn't help but be drawn to it and wanting to touch it. I reached out my hand, hesitating I thought about daring to touch my teachers stuff. In thinking about other stuff, I unconsciously made contact with the pacifier. As my skin touched the pacifier, I felt electricity and realized that it was painful. I withdrew from touching it and stepped backward. "What the hec-"

The door flew open and Lal was standing by the doorway with a shocked expression as she saw me. "Lumina. What are you doing here?" she asked with an angry straight face. "oh no.. She is clearly mad at me."

"Funny story actually- I started to talk about you with Turmeric and Oregano about your first pupil and him being your lover and-" My-mouth-is-so-damn-loud. Oh shizzle… Her expression hardened and it was clear that she was enraged by what I just said. "…So… I was going… to ask you…. What really happened when…. You guys…were changed.. into infants? Hehe…" Again, there was awkward silence but anger was in the air! How lovely! Murderous aura was spreading! "I see your in no mood to talk so I'll just be on my way…" I tiptoed trying to get past her and escape until she kicked me down halfway out her door.

She was standing on my back and just stood silent for a few seconds. "I'm not going to tell you." That's so unfair don't you think? I mean I am her student after all.. "I'll only tell you when your training is complete and when you turn out to be on what you call a lady." Ahahahah….No.

"How the heck will I do that?" Training was bad enough, so what more to be a lady. "Miss Lal, I cannot assure you that I will act lady like." For starters, I hate dresses and etiquettes. And Lastly, the thought of having a guy in your life sounds pretty disgusting. I don't know how Lal coped up with it.

"We'll see brat." She said with her straight face still on. "And when that time comes, you'll know the truth.

I took a moment of silent to think this through… Ah I hate the logic of thinking so let's do this "Fine."I agreed with her deal and we knuckle punched.

"By the way, women don't do that. Knuckle punches, I mean." Oh yeah. Boys were the ones who usually does that… this is going to be hard since I do that with everybody here most of the time.

"…..Let's see about that too." I just told her with a dull expression. "Thanks Miss Lal." I managed to put on a small smile and she seemed surprised to see me smile. "Aw come on! Don't tell me I have a booger in my nose or something? Or is it just that my smile IS really creepy."

"It's creepy because you don't even smile that much. Now get out of here" She shoved me out her room and left me alone in the hallways.

"Okay… So.. Another phase of training begins…. GREEAAAAT."

AN: so i added headcanons about Turmeric, Oregano and Basil. What do you guys think?

and i think writing fics in 1 am doesn't really help =v=...

In need of reviews please~
